Dear Susan Beal

Very well written article on forgiveness. Forgiveness is truly
an expansion of awareness that is seen less and less in
our self-oriented society. Personally speaking it seems to be a quality
of awareness that grows with use. Thank you for sharing those thoughts,
Ive been sharing your piece with many.

Dear PVQ,

What a beautiful Winter Issue! I only picked up a copy recently
and was so impressed  the front cover gives such a sense of peace
 the beauty of a candle in the dark  so much the way forgiveness
feels. What a superb topic for winter when its so easy to get
buried in the struggle. Thank you so much.

Thinking of your next issue on light and dark- I want to briefly
mention El Salvador. I was there last October. Through a Sister Parish
relationship, with a small community outside San Salvador, I have been
getting to know as friends people who have lived with more poverty,
war and trouble than I can fathom - and now the Jan 13th earthquake.
Yet - when I think of the time Ive spent with them, their light
and spirit, despite all their difficulties, warms me. Its a
puzzle. I think we of North America have much to learn about light
and dark. I know I do. So often our spirit - our light - seems to get
dimmed by the way we live our lives. Im looking forward to seeing
what others will write for your Spring issue.

Thank you again,

Dear Mr. Mueller,

Enclosed is a check for a 1 year, 4 -issue subscription to Planet
Vermont Quarterly. I truly look forward to picking up a few issues
each year when I visit the Waitsfield area. The articles are consistent
in quality and currencyexcellent. Thank you. I now look forward
to broadening your subscriber area into NJ and receiving issues on
a regular basis, not just once a year when Im in Vermont.

Sincerely,

Dear Susan Beal,

I would like to support what you are doing. Ive been monitoring
Earth Consciousness all my life and as I was born in 1901 thats
a long time. It is surfacing so fast now even I cant keep up
with italthough I try!

We have in town a small project, The Little Village Sustainable
Living Center and Coffee Shop. They would like to have maybe a dozen
Planet Vermont Quarterlies to display. Theyre a wonderful young
couple trying to make a difference.

For the Earth,

Marion Leonard, Director
